PARTY: Mustache Baby Shower

I'd like to introduce you all to Brea & Anthony. Anthony is my stepson. He's a pretty cool kid, I'm not gonna lie. And his girlfriend, Brea, is the cutest, most sweetest girl. I adore both of them! Brea & Anthony are expecting a little baby boy in April, so this past Saturday was the baby shower. I had the privilege of designing the decorations.. it was so fun! We decided to go with a mustache theme to welcome this little man into the world.

^^ Aren't they just the cutest EVER?? ^^

A friend of Brea's made hundreds of cakepops as the favors and I used my Silhouette to make 1 inch staches to tie on. So yummy!

Thank goodness for my Silhouette. Cutting out so many staches by hand would have been a nightmare! I found the pattern for the staches and the glasses in the Silhouette online store.

I found these adorable cardboard hats at a local craft store and painted them with polka dots. I used a drill to put the holes in. I bought shishkabob skewers at the dollar store for the staches and glasses on sticks. So cheap and so easy!

For the banners, I hand carved a mustache stamp. Super easy... maybe a tutorial is in the near future!

It was such a blast putting this all together. But, the best part was showering Brea with attention. She definitely deserved it! I was amazed and so grateful for how many gifts they got. Now we just wait for Little Baby V to get here! I'm so excited that I can't stand it!! (and yes, this does mean that I am going to be a grandmother... at 31.)
